Abstract

The article focuses on Charles J. Finger, writer of adventure stories. Finger is a picturesque person. His head is large, his hair gray and fluffy; he is five feet seven tall, broad-chested, well-muscled, a strongly built specimen of man. His voice is deep, he speaks with a broad English accent, and his gait is that of a sailor. This Englishman, who has been by turns music-master, sheep-herder, sailor, gold-hunter, cowhand, boiler-maker, auditor, anarchist, railroader and railroad executive, is now become a country squire, in Arkansas, where from his office in a bramble-grown hollow out in the back hills he writes books and edits his paper, All's Well.
